Reply to "Rivarossi big boy 4005"

RSJB18......can you tell me if the drive pins you put in your 2-8-8-2 fit snug in the groves on the wheel drivers and the top pin driver....I’ve taken my big boy apart rechecked those 2 short drivers and there are no cracks....but the slot groove does appear to be loose fitting....I reassembled and found that the short drivers do move side to side fairly loose....I ran the loco for several minutes and then it locked up again....tap it and it runs....obviously the drive pins and or the little pins that fit in the driver slot is the issue....gear case and shafts all look to be in great condition....let me know..... thanks, EZ Money
